Re: Virtual SMAART training: Tell the crossover frequency and type


Hey Phil!


I'm SUPER new to the tuning game, so a lot of this is over my head. I'll ask some question, but if they give away some of the answers for others, you can PM with your answers if you want.


My questions are this, as I'm new to all of this, I want to understand all sides of it. (Obviously this takes time)


What are the delays for on the DSP and Microphone for? 154ms seems crazy(173 feet?) so I don't know how that fits in to your calculations for the DSP side of it.


What am I really looking for here? From what I know of SMAART and it's displays, it seems that that the lower end of this box is more in phase than the higher end? Especially around 2k. Is this indicative of a lows box in the PA?


As far as the orders go, and what 1st order, 2nd order and all that is, I am embarrassed to say that I don't know what that is, so I can't take a stab at what those are. What does one look for to see the difference between a passive and active crossover?


Lots of questions, I know, but that's how to learn in situations like this, right Thanks for the challenge!
